This morning when I was brushing my teeth I randomly thought of ELVIS' JUNGLE ROOM. Because that's what one does when one brushes one's teeth (right?)! And then I thought of you and your new furniture. :)<br /><br />Fingers crossed that the right end tables show up in our lives soon! It's our own fault for choosing a darker finish; blonde wood finishes are everywhere.

I actually said "Is this the point where you guys serial kill me? Because I really can't believe how awesome this all is." UNREAL.

The print so far fits right in with all the other out-on-a-ledge crazy vintage stuff in the room, so I'm really excited about easing it into its new habitat. <br /><br />My sister may have already called the surplus end tables-- they're well made, but they are some kind of laminate.

Even though we haven't moved the original sofa out yet to make room for the new sectional, and the new guy is kind of sitting in a precarious middle-of-the-room spot until that time later this week, that has not stopped me from testing out different throw pillows, measuring for where it's going to go, etc. SO.

You're going to have so much decorating around this. In my book, animal prints are a neutral meant to be mixed with more neutrals on the walls and windows, with pops of jewel tone colors on the accessories. And lots of different textures, like metallic knick-knacks and velvet and chenille pillows. Arrgh, so fun!<br /><br />If you're looking for someone to take those end tables off your hands, I'm your girl! Keith and I have been looking for a matching pair of mid-century end tables in good shape with a dark finish and no cheap laminate for over a year now. :-pLibrarian Tells Allhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547944311171666630noreply@blogger.com
